Good luck buying Samsung’s new Galaxy Z Flip 5 Retro

Samsung has spent millions of labor hours and literal billions of dollars to make the Galaxy Z Flip 5 happen. It’s a lovely clamshell-styled phone with a foldable display and cover glass and costs $1,000 – for most people, it’s a decently accessible price with financing. But we all stand on the shoulders of giants, and the company is looking to show off its shoulders with a limited edition release of the Flip 5. It’s just a shame that many people who would want one of these special phones won’t be able to buy one.
